Chronicle Live reports the UK entrepreneur’s namesake charity’s aim is to help, inspire and educate vulnerable and underprivileged children across the country’s North East.

The foundation’s first project is to open a Nordoff Robbins music therapy centre in Newcastle - the first of its kind outside of London.

“I am very proud and privileged to be the first patron of the Graham Wylie Foundation,” says Johnson. “I strongly believe in the power of music to help children and adults through the tough times of ill health.

“The Brian Johnson Music Therapy Room in Sarasota, Florida, is flourishing and the results are wonderful, but now to be asked to be involved in something from my hometown makes me very proud.”
